Many of our customers are finding that other light source options don’t offer such flexibility – Kam Yim Wong of the Immunology Dept in Derriford Hospital, Plymouth was delighted to find that fitting to her older microscope was no longer going to be a problem…
I originally approached various companies with regards to getting an LED light source for my Leica DMLB microscope. The fact that the microscope was old & had a mechanized stage meant that some of the LED systems that we looked at were unsuitable to be fitted. Thankfully the CoolLED system simply slots in where the old mercury bulb unit used to sit. It took less than 5 minutes to fit, & was ready to use once it was switched on. No more waiting for the bulb to get to temperature, no more bulb changing, or re-calibrating of the mirrors before use. Simply marvellous!
The pE-100 series
The pE-100 is a fully configured unit which is supplied with a fixed LED wavelength and fitting as specified at time of order. With the release of the pE-100, we were asked to supply fittings for a larger range of microscopes. This includes many older microscopes which are used for Clinical Screening applications so our list of adaptors is now quite extensive.
